Woman caught putting bottles of orange juice laced with RUBBING ALCOHOL on the shelves at Starbucks

Caught: Ramineh Behbehanian was arrested at her home and charged with felony poisoning

A woman was caught replacing bottles of orange juice at a California Starbucks with ones tainted with rubbing alcohol.

A customer in a San Jose branch of the coffee giant saw a woman taking bottles of juice out of a bag that she brought into the shop and then placing them on the shelf in the refrigerated section.

Police were able to identify the woman as Ramineh Behbehanian and she was arrested at her home.

The 50-year-old woman was charged with
felony poisoning after investigators determined that she mixed rubbing
alcohol with orange juice and then tried to put those contaminated
bottles on the Starbucks shelf.

According to the San Jose Mercury News,
the incident occurred at around 3.45pm on Monday, and she fled the
store as soon as a customer told employees about the woman's suspicious
behavior.

The San Francisco Gate
reports that a Starbucks employee jotted down her license plate number
and reported it to police, who were able to track her to her home five
miles away.

The bottles were described as having a 'toxic smell', which lab technicians later determined was isopropyl alcohol, commonly known as rubbing alcohol.
